Chocolate Fudge Protein
Ingredients
1 cup of coconut butter
½ cup of coconut oil
½ cup of grass-fed butter or ghee
¼ cup of cacao powder
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1/8 cup of water
15-20 drops of liquid stevia
Optional Ingredient:
2 scoops of chocolate bone broth protein (this is what actually gives it protein) Marsha uses whey protein
Chocolate Fudge Protein Instructions
In a sauce pan, melt coconut oil, butter/ghee, water and whisk in the coconut butter followed by the stevia until it’s all well mixed.
Add in cacao powder, protein powder and any extras you want (cinnamon, vanilla, nuts)
Carefully pour into the ice tray
Place the tray in your freezer. You can keep them in the tray and just pop them out when you’re ready to enjoy.

Notes:
You can also use almond butter, tahini or cashew butter, which many people enjoy more in this recipe instead of the 1 cup of coconut butter. Do a 1:1 exchange on it.
Dr Jockers Comments:
This is a low-carb, fat burning, ketogenic snack or dessert recipe that could be consumed as a meal due to its powerful nutrients and blood sugar stabilizing effects. The fact that it contains the combination of good fats, anti-oxidants (in the cacao), clean protein and fiber make it a meal replacement!
I changed the original recipe which called for honey and tahini so I could use stevia and coconut butter. Stevia is much better on your blood sugar than honey. Another good sweetener that is very low-glycemic is monk fruit or lao han extract.
I swapped the tahini for the coconut butter because tahini is very high in omega 6 fats that have an inflammatory impact on the body. Tahini is considered a healthy food around the world, but it is not even close to as good for you as the coconut butter which contains anti-inflammatory fats and fiber.
Coconut fats are medium chain, which are easily burned by our body, producing ketones. Ketones provide an alternative fuel source for sugar and therefore, they have a positive impact on keeping blood sugar stable. Stable blood sugar means you will burn more fat, build more lean body tissue and improve your brain and body.
Bone broth protein powder contains collagen, which is the major building block for our skin, hair, nails and intestinal lining. I use bone broth protein daily for the key amino acids and the gut healing and anti-aging benefits I get with it. You will absolutely LOVE the flavor of the chocolate which is amazing!
